"This guide covers some factors to consider when planning and implementing critical area seedings and conservation plantings. It discusses the differences between critical area stabilization, conservation plantings and restoration with an emphasis on critical area stabilization. The use of native species, diversity and the concern for the spread of invasive species is emphasized. It points out the importance of soils and building and maintain soil quality as and integral part of all conservation plantings. It addresses the need for other measures to control erosion where needed to withstand high velocities of water and to divert water to facilitate successful seedings. It stresses mulching as an integral part of most critical area seedings and planting. The guide is divided into sectors based on the steps in conducting conservation plantings starting with planning, selecting plant material, purchasing plant materials to installing the seeding or planting, and not by plant type."--Back cover.
